Winemaker's Notes:

We are stubborn traditionalists when it comes to Sangiovese. We have the grippy medium-weight palate, the dusty strawberry and black cherry is front and center while orange peel, black pepper, and clove anchor the texture. Moderate ripeness keeps alcohol low and sings with food. We respect Sangiovese’s high-strung, nervous tannin by using neutral oak. This Sangiovese in the Classico mold will continue to evolve elegantly for another five years.

Member Reviews for Rosa d'Oro Vineyards Sangiovese

big nose of dr. brown's black cherry soda. strawberry and sour cherry on the palate. lots of fruit. you can tell that this sangiovese was not made in Italy. almost no oak, which is refreshing. the lively acidity makes it a no-brainer to pair with red sauce pasta.
